[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is your child hooked by URM or geo diversity? If so, he needs to slow down now before it's too late. Retake classes or take less accelerated classes, are pad with electives that overlap with classes already taken. It's much better to take a 5th or 6th year to graduate with a solid education, then too stumble through 4 years and fail at the end. Your son's classmates did a year or two of college in high school. Yours didn't, and that's okay. Now is the time to do that work, not try to skip it. [/quote] No normal family can afford two extra years at an Ivy. That's a huge cost. As an alternative, he could retake or preview classes online or at a CC over the summer, not for credit. Basically, give himself extra practice or a preview of the material. He needs to have a solid understanding of the fundamentals or he'll crash and burn in the classes to come.[/quote]
